Key reasons to use CAN
• Scalability• Low wiring cost• Low node connection costs
• More and more chips• More off the shelf tools• Knowledge base growing• Reliability (error free)

CAN Message Frames
• Data Frame - Carries the actual data
• Error Frame - When error is detected by any node’shardware
• Overload Frame - Request a delay on the bus
• Interframe Space - Provides minimum spacing between data and remote frames Allows error frames priority
• Remote Frame - Request transmission of Data Frame.

Error detection
Locally detected errorsWhen is an error frame sent?
• Bit error -receive bit at sender not equal to transmit bit.
• Bit stuffing violation -max 5 bits with same polarity
• CRC error -checksum violation
• Form error -bit pulse malshaped
• Ack error -no dominant level in ACK slot so sender must retransmit

Glossary• Advanced CAN: CAN peripheral with varying numbers of buffers configurable for transmit/receive. Receive buffers have
hardware filtering on at least mask/match identifier content.• Basic CAN: CAN peripheral with no hardware filtering. Typically two receive buffers act as FIFO accepting all bus traffic. Usually
one transmit buffer.• Bit Time: Nominal time of one bit on the CAN bus. Made up of multiple segments that allows each node to synchronize to the
received bus traffic. All nodes on a bus must be configured to the same (nominal) bit time.• CAN: Controller Area Network• CAN 2.0B: Version 2.0 was the last version of CAN defined by Bosch. Part B added extended identifiers and the idea of
hardware filtering.• CIA: CAN in Automation. Group controlling the CANOpen protocol.• CANOpen: Multi-area communication protocol using CAN.• CRC: Cyclic Redundancy Check• DeviceNet: Industrial communication protocol using CAN.• Dominant/Recessive: Dominant bits on physical layer can override recessive bits.• Filters: Hardware in the CAN peripheral that can mask/match bits within the identifier field used to determine whether or not route
bus data to a mailbox.• GM LAN 3.0: GM protocol, encompasses all GM serial protocols.• Identifier: Frame field that indicates the message content. This field also is used to arbitrate the message priority on the bus;
lower identifier is higher priority.• Standard Format; frames use 11 bit identifier.• Extended Format “- 29 bits
• ISO 11898: ISO standardized version of CAN.• Mailbox: CAN hardware buffer that can be used to transmit or receive data. Most full CAN implementations have at least 16
mailboxes.• ODVA: Open DeviceNet Vendor Association. Group controlling DeviceNet protocol.• Time Quanta: Smallest time unit used by CAN. Multiple time quanta make up the segments of a bit time.• TT CAN: Time Triggered CAN. More deterministic CAN by assigning time slots when nodes may transmit.• FlexRay: Next generation automotive network. Time slots on the bus provide more deterministic behavior.• Vector-CanTech: Supplier of the majority of CAN software drivers and tools to North American and European automobile ECUs.
